Anita Hernandez with the Irwindale Brew Yard spoke in support of approving a funding increase as requested by Mrs. Phan.
Carmen Roman questioned whether the City could afford to donate more to the Chamber than it already does and suggested that Chamber staff perhaps search for available grants.
In response to a question from Councilmember Burrola, Ms. Phan stated that the value of the platinum level membership is $67,000, though the Chamber is instead asking that the City contribute $50,000. She also noted that the City of Irwindale is the Chamber’s only platinumlevel member.

In response to a comment by Councilmember Burrola, Ms. Phan stated that Chamber staff still need to pay for things such as hotel stays and noted that Chamber members do not necessarily donate to the Chamber, and that at most these businesses would offer goods and services at a 5% to 10% discount.

BUSINESS LICENSE TAX STUDY WORKSHOP
Director Borhani provided brief background information on the staff report and introduced Ken Duran, Senior Adviser with HDL Companies, who presented the study.
Fayez Yousef asked about the compliance enforcement success rate under the current business license tax structure. He stated his opinion that current enforcement efforts contain discrepancies and lack of equity.
Director Borhani advised that the draft ordinance includes new procedures and enforcement processes, though internal processes are not typically disclosed publicly. He noted that the City has sources in place where the City could track businesses to ensure that they are duly registered and comply with City requirements and stated that staff’s goal is not to be punitive; rather, it wishes to educate the business community to gain their voluntary compliance with City requirements.
Mr. Yousef asked whether studies have been conducted to gauge the amount of revenue the City is losing because of businesses not obtaining the required business license.
Director Borhani responded by reiterating that enforcement procedures are typically not disclosed publicly and noted that the purpose of tonight’s item was for the Council to decide whether it wishes to place it on the ballot. He further advised that staff are equally applying fair rate standards amongst local businesses.

Director Borhani presented the report.
Councilmember Burrola requested a report detailing the level of pay that lifeguards receive, to which Aquatics Supervisor Grijalva noted that Irwindale lifeguards must recertify every two years, and discussed their salaries in comparison to the lifeguards serving at Azusa and Baldwin Park.
He also compared the pay rates of lifeguards to those of Library Pages.
Supervisor Grijalva additionally noted that: 1) Irwindale lifeguards typically work from March through October, 2) that they are recruited from local high school swim teams, for example, 3) current staffing levels, and 4) pay scales.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 10, 2026
REGULAR MEETING PAGE 4
Councilmember Burrola stated that he liked the idea of potentially holding the event at an Athens facility or at the gym. He also suggested perhaps pushing the musical band back a bit in order to free up space to place more tables. Another option he mentioned was to hire an architect to look into ways that the Senior Center area could be expanded.
Carmen Roman stated that senior dances are becoming too crowded, though most seniors attend to enjoy dinner but leave when the space is opened for dancing. She also stated that she does not like to drive further away, like to Hurst Ranch, especially since many seniors enjoy alcoholic drinks with their dinners.
Councilmember Breceda stated that, should the dance be held at Hurst Ranch, attendance will drop and suggested keeping the dance at the Senior Center.
Regarding the potential of expanding the Senior Center, Director Rodriguez noted that staff currently has many other projects planned and that staff would not be able to immediately address this project. She also noted that staff had previously set up an overflow room which some seniors used, and stated that staff would be fine with keeping the dance at the Senior Center.
Councilmember Garcia suggested keeping the dance at the Senior Center since it is tradition.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz concurred with Councilmember Garcia and noted that it would require a lot of logistics to move the dance to another location, though he would be amenable to holding the event at the Athens facility.
Councilmember Burrola reiterated that he would like to direct the City Manager to search for an architect to discuss potentially expanding the subject area at the Senior Center.
Mayor Ortiz stated that it appeared that most of the Council prefer to keep the dance at the Senior Center, and thanked staff for looking into holding the event at other venues. He also asked that staff look into the availability of the Athens location and determine how many guests could be fit at the gym.
Director Rodriguez noted that the Parks & Recreation Commission had also requested for the purchase of risers and discussed staff’s efforts in attempting to determine their cost.
Councilmember Garcia spoke against the potentially costly purchase of risers.
A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz, seconded by Councilmember Breceda, to introduce Ordinance No. 820, entitled: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ADOPTING THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027,” for first reading, reading by title only and waiving further reading thereof, and adopt Resolution No. 2026-39-3850, entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWIINDALE ESTABLISHING THE APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL Y EAR 2026-2027,” was unanimously passed approved and adopted.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 22, 2026
SPECIAL MEETING PAGE 3
Board Member Burrola spoke against developing townhouses at the six-acre site.
Vice Chair Ambriz concurred with Board Member Burrola and asked about the portion of the 10-acre site that previously experienced a slope failure, to which Coordinator Lopez indicated that a home could not be built on that 1-acre portion of the site, though alternatives such as a dog park or a community park would be ideal.
Board Member Burrola asked how staff would present the Request for Proposals (“RFP”) to potential developers, to which Coordinator Lopez stated that the RFP would be presented in a way that complies with all local ordinances and the Housing Element for the site.
Board Member Burrola then asked whether the draft RFP would be reviewed by the Board prior to being issues, to which Mr. Damle indicated that the RFP would indicate exactly what the Board is seeking, and that, after proposals are received, the Board would have the option of engaging with those firms that it prefers.
Board Member Garcia spoke on the need to address ingress and egress on Allen Drive and noted the need to potentially widen the street. He agreed against townhomes and rentals and suggested developing only single-family dwellings at this site, whether it be lot sizes of either 5,000 or 3,000 square feet. Board Member Garcia also stated that he would be ok if the development of the former Dominguez site was added to the same RFP.
Chair Ortiz asked whether the addition of the former Dominguez site to the RFP would delay the project, to which Coordinator Lopez indicated that details on that property are still being discussed.
Vice Chair Ambriz stressed the need to maintain local control over the development of the site.
Responding to a comment from Board Member Burrola, Coordinator Lopez stated that the former Dominguez site could be developed as a rental project, whereas the Allen Drive site could be developed with single-family units available for ownership.
Board consensus was reached to develop single-family homes on Allen Drive.
Vice Chair Ambriz asked when the Board could receive conceptual plans/drawings for the sites, to which Mr. Damle indicated that the RFP could require that potential developers present renderings.
Chair Ortiz asked whether the RFP responses would indicate the number of homes per acre to be developed, to which Coordinator Lopez confirmed that they would. He added that the plans would need to comply with zoning requirements, which, as an R2 zoned site, would allow a maximum of 14 units per acre.
Board Member Garcia reiterated the need to also consider the need to include roadways, streets, sidewalks, etc., as part of the project.
Coordinator Lopez indicated that, though the Allen Drive site is zoned R2, an overlay could be implemented, allowing housing lot sizes to be developed up to 5,000 square feet.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 22, 2026
SPECIAL MEETING PAGE 4
A motion was made by Vice Chair Ambriz, seconded by Board Member Burrola, to direct staff to proceed with an RFP for approximately six-acres at the Allen Drive site for single-family homeownership only; no townhomes, and to continue planning the Dominguez site as a rental housing project, and to direct staff to continue moving the project forward, consistent with the Board’s direction. The motion was unanimously approved; Board Member Breceda absent.

PECK ROAD GRAVEL PIT – BUBALO (128 LIVE OAK AVENUE) VERBAL UPDATE Director Chan advised that the Peck Road gravel pit is performing a mining operation under CUP 95-4, and that the mining operation at the pit is subject to the City’s mining tax requirement. Total excavation tax is $0.8655 cents per ton. The last mining activities reported at the site occurred in the 3rd quarter of 2024. Since then, there has not been any excavation at the site. He also reported on traffic and dust control requirements, such as the requirement under the CUP to have 300 feet of paved asphalt from Live Oak Avenue to prevent trucks from tracking soil material onto
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JULY 22, 2026
REGULAR MEETING PAGE 4
City streets. The CUP also requires the installation of mud-trapping devices to capture mud and other debris from mining trucks before they leave the site as well as rumble plates installed at the exit routes on site. Mining operations are subject to compliance with requirements of the South Coast Air Quality Management District, including the use of street sweepers during their operations. Code Enforcement staff inspected the area on June 29 and again on July 21 and found no issues and did not receive any complaints; streets were clean and no dust issues were observed. The existing stockpile adjacent to Peck Road is located within Monrovia’s jurisdiction of the pit. The top of the mount is approximately 440 feet, with a street elevation of approximately 350 feet. The owner/operator intends to use the stockpile materials to backfill the pit located south of the property. Based on the last quarterly report, the Peck Road pit has approximately 93,000 tons of material remaining.
Responding to a question from Fred Barbosa, Director Chan advised that the pit is partially located within Monrovia, and another portion within Irwindale, and that the operator pays taxes to the appropriate City. However, they are not currently mining. Fred Barbosa questioned the quality of the fill material and whether it would contaminate Irwindale’s water. He suggested that the stockpile be examined.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz requested that City Attorney Guerra look into the issues raised by Mr.
Barbosa, to which City Attorney Guerra responded by indicating that the matter is complex, though he would look into it if it were the desire of the Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz requested that staff continue monitoring the site for dust control.

Mihran Toumajan with the NAIOP, Lewis Gomez with Rexford Industrial, Ben Mayet and Anita Hernandez with the Irwindale Brew Yard, Lily Phan of the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce, and Fayez Yousef all spoke on the need to update the City’s business license tax to fund essential services, though more time is needed to fully analyze the proposal and potentially come up with a more balanced tax rate, and asked that the Council defer placing a tax measure on the ballot for the November election until a meaningful stakeholder process is held.
Mr. Yousef requested that the final report on the proposed business license tax be provided for analysis. He also questioned staff’s efforts to identify and fine businesses that are not paying their business license fees and taxes.
There being no additional speakers, Mayor Ortiz closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m.
Responding to a question from Councilmember Burrola, City Manager Miranda advised that, should the Council decide to proceed with placing the tax measure on the ballot, a special Council meeting would need to take place soon to finalize the process in time for the November election.
City Attorney Guerra added that, should the Council wish to proceed, it is important that it provide direction relating to the structure of the tax it plans to propose to the voters and so that staff can work to finalize the language for the draft ordinance for consideration at next week’s special meeting.
Mayor Ortiz stated that, after hearing comments and receiving reports on the matter during previous meetings, and if the Council decides to proceed, then the tax should be implemented in phases in order for businesses to have sufficient time to start paying the new rates.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz spoke in favor of phasing the tax, though he also noted that it has been many years since the business license tax has been revised.
City Attorney requested that the Council provide direction to staff about how the tax should be phased.
City Manager Miranda also requested that the Council clarify the number of years that the tax should be phased as well as the tax formula that should be used.
Responding to a question from Mayor Ortiz, Director Borhani advised that staff would begin to conduct the needed research to ensure the process if conducted in accordance with rules and guidelines. Director Borhani also requested that the motion include direction regarding the number of years that the phasing of the tax rates should be implemented. He also asked the Council whether it would allow an exemption and flat fees.
Mayor Ortiz stated that the tax should be phased over a period of three years to give businesses sufficient time to pay their share of taxes.
A motion was made by Mayor Ortiz, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz, to direct staff to prepare a staff report and ordinance for the next Council meeting to move forward with approving an ordinance to include a three-year implementation process of taxes, with rates to be determined

IMPARTIAL ANALYSIS THEREOF
City Manager Miranda noted two corrections: 1) since this item was the continuation of the public hearing previously scheduled on July 22, 2026, the agenda report name should have stated “Consider the Proposed Amendment to Title 5 of the Irwindale Municipal Code to Modernize the City’s Business License Tax for Existing and Emerging Businesses,” and the recommendation should have read: “That the Irwindale City Council hear the staff report, open the public hearing, hear public comments, and continue to date certain,” thereby continuing the public hearing to today’s date: July 29, 2026, after which it should be continued to a date certain.
Director Borhani presented the staff report and made a PowerPoint presentation.
At 10:22 a.m., Mayor Ortiz opened the public hearing.
The following individuals spoke against the proposed tax measure since it would place an incredible burden on their respective businesses, spoke against placing the proposed measure on the ballot for the November election, and asked that local businesses be given time to

participate in a stakeholder process with the City so that they may voice their concerns and have time for a full and detailed analysis to be prepared:
Mihran Toumajan with the NAIOP
Lily Phan with the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce
Kevin Hendrick of Sierra Alloys
Emily Kowey Roth of Bonduelle

Rick Rockhill of Breeder’s Choice
Suzanne Gomez suggested the potential for a special election so that the City and the business community could come up with an amicable solution and suggested the possibility for the businesses to cover the costs of the special election.
There being no additional speakers, Mayor Ortiz closed the public hearing at 11:02 a.m.
Councilmember Burrola asked that the business community recognize that the City’s business license tax code has not been adjusted in 25 years.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz acknowledged that the tax has not been adjusted in many years and stated his opinion that staff have duly researched the matter in order to derive the proposed tax. He noted that the new proposal is greatly reduced compared to staff’s previous recommendation, spoke on the need to have a tax that will adequately sustain City operations, and suggested that the proposed tax be placed on the ballot for the November election.
Councilmember Garcia suggested possibly considering the matter at a future date to allow time to work through the concerns, though he added that the matter should be put to a vote of the residents.
Mayor Ortiz agreed that the tax code needs to be modernized; however, after listening to the concerns of the members of the business community, he preferred fully discussing the matter with local businesses instead of rushing to place it on the ballot for voter consideration.
A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz to: adopt Resolution No. 2026-59-3869, ordering the submission to the qualified electors of the City of a certain measure relating to a transactions and use (sales) tax at the consolidated General Municipal Election; adopt Resolution No. 2026-60-3870, setting priorities for filing written argument(s) and directing the City Attorney to prepare an impartial analysis regarding the proposed Measure; and adopt Resolution No. 2026-61-3871, providing for the filing of rebuttal arguments for a Measure; and conduct the First Reading, by Title only, of Ordinance No. 822, amending Title 5 of the Irwindale Municipal Code to modernize the proposed City's business license tax measure.

SPECIAL MEETING PAGE 3
Councilmember Burrola objected to conducting a special election due to its cost.
City Attorney Guerra suggested that the motion be revised to direct staff to finalize the resolutions and ordinance. He also noted that, in order to place a tax-related item on the ballot for a special election, the City would first need to make a finding of fiscal emergency.
Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz amended his motion to include City Attorney Guerra’s recommendations. The motion was seconded by Councilmember Burrola. On roll call, the motion failed, with Councilmembers Breceda and Garcia opposed, Councilmember Burrola and Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz in favor, and Mayor Ortiz abstaining.
A motion was made by Councilmember Breceda, seconded by Mayor Ortiz, to direct staff to explore the business license tax for consideration, possibly at a special election and to obtain input from community businesses.
City Attorney Guerra stated that staff would explore the request and noted that, should the City be unable to find that a fiscal emergency exists, it would not move forward with a special election. He noted the option to wait until the next general election to add this measure to the ballot.
Responding to a question from Councilmember Burrola, City Attorney Guerra stated that any tax imposed would need to be approved by the voters.
Mayor Ortiz recommended that staff to set up workshops for the business community to voice their concerns, and for the City to voice its perspective, after which an appropriate tax rate could be placed on the election ballot.
In response to a question from Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz, Director Borhani advised that the City would not disclose any confidential proprietary information of any business.
City Manager Miranda stated that staff will work with the direction given by the Council.
On roll call vote, the motion was approved with all members in favor except for Councilmember Burrola, who opposed.
City Manager Miranda advised that an update will be provided to the Council once staff begin working with the business community.

Issue: Claim Rejection - Cynthia Zepeda vs. City of Irwindale City Manager's Recommendation:
(1) Reject the claim of Cynthia Zepeda vs. City of Irwindale; and (2) Direct staff to send a letter of rejection.
Administrative Action:
Submitted by:
Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Prepared by:
Laura Nieto, Chief Deputy City Clerk
Reviewed by:
Adrian R. Guerra, City Attorney
Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
On July 1, 2026, the City received a claim for damages from claimant Cynthia Zepeda. Claimant Zepeda alleges that on February 4, 2026, while driving through the intersection of Los Angeles Street and the I605 Northbound on-ramp in Irwindale, her vehicle was struck in a side-impact collision by another driver while the traffic signals were flashing red due to alleged City maintenance. She claims that the City was negligent in planning, performing, or supervising that maintenance and in failing to provide
adequate traffic control, signage, or warnings, creating a dangerous condition that caused the collision and resulting injuries.
The claim was reviewed by the City’s claims adjuster, Athens Administrators, who has recommended rejection of the claim. Their recommendation is made on the basis that the intersection's traffic signals are owned, operated, and maintained by Caltrans, which holds the right-of-way at this location.
Accordingly, staff is recommending that the City Council reject the claim and direct staff to send a standard letter of rejection. Alternatively, the City Council may direct the City Manager to negotiate resolution of the claim.

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Waive the Formal Bidding Procedures and Authorize the Issuance of a Puchase Order for Laptops Anytime
City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council of the City of Irwindale adopt Resolution No. 2026-74-3884 entitled, "A
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE WAIVING FORMAL BIDDING REQUIREMENTS PURSUNT TO IRWINDALE MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 3.44.080(H) AND AUTHORIZING
THE ISSUANCE OF A PURCHASE ORDER TO LAPTOPS ANYTIME FOR A SELF-SERVICE LAPTOP DISPENSING KIOSK FOR THE IRWINDALE PUBLIC LIBRARY."
Administrative Action:
Submitted / Prepared by:
Shayna Balli, City Librarian
Reviewed by:
Adrian R. Guerra, City Attorney
Kambiz Borhani, Finance Director / City Treasurer
Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
In preparation for the opening of the new Irwindale Public Library, staff developed a technology plan to meet growing demand and increased usage. Increased access to technology necessitates that the Library purchase a self-service laptop dispensing kiosk to provide patrons with greater flexibility in accessing computers.
Traditional public computer stations provide an important resource; however, they require patrons to use technology from a fixed location. During peak hours, these fixed location units are often all occupied by patrons, causing delayed waiting times for users. A self-service laptop lending system will complement the Library's existing public computers by reducing wait time and allowing patrons to check out a laptop for use throughout designated areas of the Library.
Staff identified the Laptops Anytime Self-Service Laptop Dispensing Kiosk as a solution designed specifically for automated laptop lending in libraries. The system securely stores, charges, dispenses, and accepts returned laptops while providing a self-service checkout experience for patrons.
Staff recommends purchasing a self-service laptop dispensing kiosk from Laptops Anytime pursuant to the City's applicable sole-source procurement provisions.
Irwindale Municipal Code (“IMC”) Section 3.44.080(H) states that the bidding process can be waived "when the city council determines by resolution it would be in the best interest of the city to dispense with bidding; provided, however, that the city council shall state the basis of its determination." It is in the best interest of the City of Irwindale to dispense with formal bidding as Laptops Anytime is a sole source provider offering an integrated system that includes proprietary hardware, software, laptop storage and charging components, user authentication functionality, administrative management tools, and associated technical support.
Fiscal Impact:
The FY 2026–2027 adopted budget includes $43,000 for the purchase of a self-service laptop dispensing kiosk, of which $21,500 is funded by the Irwindale Community Foundation. The total purchase amount is $42,301.52. Sufficient funds are available in the adopted budget; therefore, no additional appropriation is required.

Dispensing Portable 110V Battery Chargers is unique in that the portable chargers complement the growing number of BYOD (bring your own device) patrons and allow them to plug their specific device charger in to the Portable Battery Charger's 110V/85/Watt port. This Portable Battery Charger approach allow facilities to avoid adding wiring and costly additional wall outlets to their facilities.
LaptopsAnytime attends industry leading conferences including Educause, the American Library Association, College Research Library Association, California Library Association and Texas Library Association and is active on social media sites. We can state for the record that no other organization offers our unique self-service hardware or back-end software dispensing or monitoring services.
Each of our kiosk systems is specially designed to:
(a) Directly auto-dock the above devices (including portable power chargers) into power for recharging of the devices. Not only are we the only company to do this, but our system allows for up to five different devices in the same kiosk so our kiosk can be outfitted with combinations of Dell, Lenovo, HP, Apple, Chromebooks and iPads in the same kiosk along with Portable Power Chargers (with 110V outlet and USBs).
Note: While LaptopsAnytime kiosks automatically recharge and dock to power all devices within the kiosk with every return 100% of the time, in contrast, other products (e.g. lockers) make users responsible for manually plugging in the charger, for which they often fail to do day after day. This results in taking costly and valuable staff time to complete this simple process.
LaptopsAnytime Kiosks email administrators with trouble codes, e.g. if laptop/tablet fails to eject, kiosk fails to check in, RFID reader fails etc. and kiosk proactively shuts down "troubled" bay or "bad" device until administrator can check on the issue. Furthermore, LaptopsAnytime Kiosks have the ability to record and email administrators with laptop/tablet issues. Kiosk gives users the ability
to notify administrators of laptop issues (broken screen, keyboard etc.) for their immediate attention.
(b) All bays and screen buttons within LaptopsAnytime Kiosk Systems are ADA-Compliant and Accessible for all users.
(c) We are also the only Company to standardize around choice of Automatic 3-yr/4-yr/5-yr Upgrade Programs whereby each facility receives a new replacement kiosk per their selection and continual participation on one of our Maintenance/Service Plan Levels (Platinum Plus, Platinum or Gold).
As part of its Platinum Plus Hardware Agreement, for example, LaptopsAnytime covers all costs associated with kiosk repairs and replacement parts at no additional cost. Furthermore, our kiosks are kept in new condition and updated every three years to accommodate newly purchased laptops, regardless of the model. We completely replace the 3-year old kiosk with new bays, graphics, and electronic components without cost or interruption to the University. The old kiosk contains 90% Machined Aluminum and 10% Sheet Parts for which 80% is reusable in other kiosks and 100% percent of the kiosk is recyclable. This maintains your kiosk in a like-new state without cost to you or the environment. Over a 6-Yr period, Platinum Plus Service plan provides you with one new kiosk and 2 replacement kiosks (year 3 & 6) giving you a consistent kiosk experience well into the future!
In addition, among other proprietary features, LaptopsAnytime’s automated systems:
• Use centralized server management to network all installed systems – Laptop and Tablet Dispensing Kiosk Stations – and provide audit trails of checkout duration, software, user authentication and the capability of charging for usage or late fees. Administrator can use our system to set minimum battery life that needs to be reached in order for device to be readied for checkout;
• Ensure proper inventory management by (a) monitoring and tracking status of mechanical locking mechanisms and devices themselves to notify facility of needed service and (b) authenticating users via major Integrated Library Systems such as SIP-2 (and/or LDAP/AD) to ensure that checkout/rental activity take place by authorized individual; • Rapidly recharge devices, determine battery life (in real-time), wipe them clean and restore them to pre-set state thereby readying devices for self-service checkout/rental and self-monitor its systems with email notifications sent to administrators per pre-determined protocol. • Quick Return capability whereby end-user who returns device within pre-set period can indicate to the kiosk what (if anything) is wrong with a device and have that device/bay be blocked until service can be arranged.
Specific Proprietary LaptopsAnytime Hardware design features:
• Custom build “secure” bays to accommodate any laptop/netbook/tablet brand, size, and shape, typically in multiples of 6 (so far Host Stations of 6- and 12-bays, and Add-Companions of 12- and 18-bays).
• Space-saving, modular designs that accommodate multiple device types (e.g. Dell, HP, Apple, Lenovo, Acer, Google so far) to be vended using one Host module • Capability of mix-n-match different devices within same kiosk system • Customized kiosk graphics and/or color scheme for the enclosures • Automatic recharging of all devices within the kiosk
• Choice of Magnetic Stripe Reader and/or Bar Code reader and/or RFID reader for user authentication
• Ability to allow the enclosures to be mobile and easily moved from one location to another • Systems can be placed in public spaces. All the while, access and security protocols restrict usage to authenticated users.
Specific LaptopsAnytime Software design features:
• Kiosk interface and controller runs in a secure lockdown Linux OS -- Ability to manage kiosks by groups or individually.
• Ability to vend/control multiple device types, allowing the user to choose the device type, e.g. laptop or tablet
• Ability to monitor the battery life of the device and give the administrator(s) the ability to choose the battery minimum at time of checkout/rental
• Ability to authenticate users via custom database and/or guest user cards • Ability to customize user interface on the fly look and text remotely • Ability to remotely manage kiosk secure login
• Kiosk sends email receipt to users after each session • Kiosk camera option that takes a picture of each user at time of checkout/rental • Auto remote monitoring, troubleshooting and basic system diagnostics • Kiosk emails administrators with trouble codes, e.g. if laptop/tablet fails to eject, kiosk fails to check in, RFID reader fails etc. and kiosk proactively shuts down "troubled" bay or "bad" device until administrator can check on the issue
• Ability to record and email administrators with laptop/tablet issues. Kiosk gives user the ability to notify administrators of laptop issues (broken screen, keyboard etc) for immediate attention • Ability to pull reports on kiosk usage that include checkout/rental times, rental length, number of checkout/rentals, and dollar amounts
• Ability to work with AD/ILS to charge overdue fines or place holds on accounts. • Safe and secure usage sessions using “Clear Boot” Technology (i.e. Deep Freeze for laptop and proprietary programming for tablets)
LaptopsAnytime kiosks are unique in that they save-space, provide necessary accountability and systems integration, and provide a complete solution without compromising security or userfriendliness.
We charge facilities standard pricing for the same kiosk equipment, annual software licenses and service plans based on market rates. Thus, we offer every facility the best possible – fair and reasonable – price, including quantity discounts.
We look forward to the opportunity to work with Irwindale City Library! Best Regards,

From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Approval of ZIP Code Legislation Resolution of Support for the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee
City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-48-3859 entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE, CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING S. 4505 (ERNST, PADILLA, BARRASSO, AND BENNET) AND APPROVING A LETTER OF SUPPORT" reading by title only and waiving further reading thereof.

Iris Espino, Assistant to the City Manager

Adrian R. Guerra, City Attorney
Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
On June 10, 2026, the City Council received a staff report regarding proposed federal legislation (S. 4505) which would direct the USPS to establish a unique ZIP Code for the City of Irwindale, and the accompanying resolution of support was included as an attachment. Staff is returning this item to Council to formally adopt Resolution No. 2026-48-3859 in support of S. 4505.
The City of Irwindale is a unique municipality with a distinct civic identity, significant industrial and commercial presence, and an important role in the regional economy. Despite its incorporation in 1957and its longstanding status as an independent city, Irwindale does not currently have a ZIP Code that is uniquely assigned to the City. Instead, portions of the City are served by ZIP Codes associated with neighboring communities, primarily 91706, which is shared with the City of Baldwin Park. The absence of a unique ZIP Code has created ongoing challenges for residents, businesses, property owners, and public agencies. Mail delivery addresses are often associated with neighboring cities rather than Irwindale, leading to confusion about municipal boundaries, business locations, emergency services, demographic data collection, and economic development efforts. The proposed legislation seeks to direct the appropriate federal agencies and the United States Postal Service to evaluate and establish a unique ZIP Code designation for the City of Irwindale. A unique ZIP Code would provide greater recognition of the City's identity and improve the accuracy of governmental, commercial, and public records.
A unique ZIP Code would provide several benefits to the City and its stakeholders, including:
• Strengthening the City's identity and recognition throughout the region and nation; • Improving address accuracy for residents and businesses located within City boundaries; • Reducing confusion associated with neighboring city designations on mailing addresses; • Enhancing economic development and business recruitment efforts by providing a clearly identifiable municipal address;
• Improving data collection, demographic reporting, and geographic analysis used by government agencies and private organizations; and
• Increasing visibility of the City in mapping systems, databases, and postal records.
For many years, city officials, businesses, and residents have expressed concerns regarding the lack of distinct postal identity for Irwindale. Establishing a unique ZIP Code would help ensure that addresses within the City are properly recognized as part of Irwindale and reinforce the City's presence in Los Angeles County and the State of California.
According to information from the U.S. Congressional Research Service, there are two ways for a municipality to request changes to its ZIP code boundaries:
Method 1: USPS ZIP Code Boundary Review Process.
Any municipality seeking a ZIP code change can submit a written request to USPS. The USPS will evaluate the request based on cost, impacts on mail delivery, and issues related to community identity.If the request is granted, the USPS will arrange a meeting with the proponent group to discuss USPS’ proposed accommodation. Once an agreement is reached, the USPS will commission a formal survey of customers who would be affected by the proposed ZIP code change. If a simple majority of the impacted residents approve, the USPS will notify affected customers of the official ZIP code change by mail and provide them with one year to transition their ZIP codes. If a ZIP code boundary request is denied by USPS, proponent groups have 45 days to submit an appeal.
Method 2: Acts of Congress
Congress may introduce legislation that requires the USPS to create a single ZIP code for a specified community. The most recent example of a ZIP code created by statute occurred in 2006 as part of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act. This Act granted ZIP code boundary changes for Bradbury,CA; Discovery Bay, CA; Auburn Township, OH; and Hanahan, SC.
Advocacy Work.
Recently, the City joined an informal working group, the National Zip Code Advocacy Coalition,established by the City of Eastvale and the City of Castle Pines in Colorado. The Coalition provides platform for jurisdictions that are experiencing similar ZIP code challenges to share best practices and partner with one another. As of this month, the Coalition includes over 80 municipalities across 30states. Through this advocacy group, Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA), Senator John Barrasso (R-WY), and Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) introduced S. 4505 "To require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities," which includes 75 jurisdictions across the nation. The bill was introduced on May 12, 2026.
To further encourage passage of the proposed bill, support future advocacy, and demonstrate support for the legislation, staff recommends that the city council adopt a resolution and approve a letter of support to be sent to the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and our respective Senators and Congress members. Staff will track the bill and update the council as needed.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with approving the resolution of support.

The Honorable Rand H. Paul, MD
Chairman
Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs United States Senate
Washington, D.C. 20510
RE: SUPPORT FOR ZIP CODE BOUNDARY CORRECTION LEGISLATION (S. 4505) Dear Senator Paul:
On behalf of the City of Irwindale, we express our strong support for S. 4505, legislation that would require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities that currently lack distinct postal identities.
Despite numerous petitions from affected communities, the USPS consistently declined requests for ZIP code boundary adjustments and provided little feedback. It has been nearly two decades since Congress last enacted legislation directing the USPS to correct ZIP code boundaries.
Currently, legislation introduced by Representatives Ernst, Padilla, Barrasso, and Bennet (S. 4505) is pending before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and would require the United States Postal Service to designate ZIP Codes for certain communities, including Irwindale. This legislation would address the longstanding need for the United States Postal Service (USPS) to update ZIP code boundaries and designate revised boundaries for communities nationwide facing similar issues.
For many years, residents, businesses, public agencies, and community organizations in Irwindale have faced challenges due to the lack of a unique ZIP Code designation. Mail addressed to Irwindale is often associated with neighboring communities, creating confusion in mailing addresses, emergency services coordination, government records, demographic reporting, business operations, and community identity.
A dedicated ZIP Code for Irwindale would provide several important benefits:
• Improve mail delivery accuracy and efficiency.
• Enhance emergency response and public safety communications. • Ensure more accurate governmental, economic, and demographic data collection. • Strengthening community identity and recognition.
• Support local businesses by providing a clear and consistent geographic designation.
[City Letterhead]
• Reduce confusion for residents, visitors, service providers, and government agencies.
Irwindale is a unique municipality with its own local government, industrial base, businesses, and residents. The community deserves the same recognition afforded to other incorporated cities throughout the nation that maintain distinct ZIP Code designations.
I respectfully urge you and the Committee to advance S. 4505 and support its prompt consideration by the Senate. This legislation represents a practical and meaningful step toward ensuring fair and accurate representation of the postal service for communities such as Irwindale.
Beyond improving quality of life, this corrective legislation will enhance mail delivery efficiency in Irwindale and strengthen USPS service standards. We look forward to collaborating with you and the Committee members to advance this critical legislation.
Thank you for your consideration, and please do not hesitate to reach out to the City’s Assistant to the City Manager, Iris Espino, at [email protected] if you have any questions.
Respectfully,

Issue: Irwindale Senior Center Prom Queen and King Nomination and Voting Procedures City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-70-3880, entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ADOPTING PROM QUEEN AND KING NOMINATION AND VOTING PROCEDURES FOR THE IRWINDALE SENIOR CENTER."

Background and Analysis:
At the May 26, 2026, Senior Citizen Commission meeting, the Commission requested that the procedures for Prom Queen and Prom King nominations be brought forward for review.
Following the request, staff met to review the current nomination and voting process and identify opportunities to improve its fairness, clarity, and overall administration. Staff prepared a presentation outlining minor updates to the existing procedures.
Staff presented the proposed changes to the Senior Citizen Commission at its regularly scheduled meeting on June 23, 2026. Following discussion, the Commission recommended that the proposed changes be forwarded to the City Council for approval.
The proposed updates to the nomination process and why the changes were made are outlined below:Nominations will be submitted on an individual basis rather than as a couple. Participants may nominate one candidate for Prom Queen, one candidate for Prom King, or both. All nominees must satisfy the established eligibility requirements to be considered for placement on the ballot. This approach would allow participants to continue to recognize couples by nominating both individuals, while also providing the flexibility to nominate candidates on an individual basis. • Each nominee will still be required to accept their nomination before being placed on the ballot. However, if a nominee's proposed running mate declines the nomination, the remaining nominee would still be eligible to run as an individual candidate. • If there are not enough nominees for either the Prom Queen or Prom King title to conduct a meaningful election, Senior Center Manager or designated staff may identify and nominate up to two additional eligible candidates for that title, subject to the nominee's acceptance of the nomination.
• Voting will be conducted during the prom event, in a designated area. Participants may cast their ballot at any time during the three-hour voting window. This provides participants with an additional activity and engagement opportunity during the prom event. Voting at the prom instead of during the week leading up to the event reduces the time available for discussing voting preferences and campaigning and will help to minimize potential interpersonal conflicts, hurt feelings, and perceptions of favoritism while promoting a more equitable voting process.
Additionally, voting at the prom event eliminates the need for staff to verify duplicate votes and simplifies vote counting by limiting ballots to attendees present at the event.
Written procedures for the Prom Queen and King have always been outlined on the Senior Prom Dance Flyer that is distributed to the community. As a result of these changes, staff has prepared formal procedures including the changes listed above. The Prom Queen and King Nomination and Voting Procedures contains the following information:
• Established definitions
• Eligibility criteria

Issue: E-waste & Declaration of Surplus
City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-75-3885 entitled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE DECLARING CERTAIN CITY PROPERTY SURPLUS AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO PROVIDE FOR THE DISPOSITION OF SAID PROPERTY." Administrative Action:

Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
The items identified as surplus have been in the City’s possession for several years. These items and vehicles are no longer in use and have been replaced with newer equipment, vehicles, and modern operational practices.
The Public Services Department has systematically replaced outdated and inoperable equipment over time. The Public Services Director has identified the equipment listed as surplus property and determined that it is ready to be included on the City’s surplus inventory list for disposition.
The Information Technology Division continually updates software and equipment to ensure that the City remains current with evolving technology and maintains appropriate protection against malware, viruses, and other cybersecurity threats. The electronic equipment identified in this report is outdated and no longer suitable for City use. These items have been replaced and are currently occupying valuable storage space. Accordingly, the Information Technology Manager has declared the equipment listed in the attached inventory to be surplus property and has determined that it is ready for disposition through public auction or, where appropriate, electronic waste (E-waste) recycling.
Section 3.44.150 of the Irwindale Municipal Code requires property declared surplus to be disposed of through a competitive bid process. Given the nature and estimated value of the surplus equipment and other items, the most efficient and cost-effective method of obtaining competitive bids is through a public auction service. Utilizing an auction service will allow the City to obtain competitive bids and dispose of the surplus property in an efficient and consolidated manner.
Therefore, staff recommend that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-75-3885, declaring the items on Exhibit A as surplus and exempt from the requirements of IMC section 3.44.150 and authorizing the City Manager to dispose of the items.
Fiscal Impact:
These items will be auctioned off, and the sale will be based on the auction amount. Any funds derived from the auction of the equipment, electronics and other miscellaneous items will be deposited in the General Fund.

Background and Analysis:
The Public Services Department issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for Janitorial Services for the City of Irwindale facilities on April 25, 2024. A mandatory site walk was held on May 7, 2024, and questions were accepted through May 14, 2024. Two addenda were issued on May 16 and May 22, 2024. The City received a total of nine (9) proposals, which were evaluated based on experience, capacity, and pricing. Following the initial evaluation, five firms were selected to participate in interviews with City staff.
On June 26, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-49-3526, awarding the janitorial services contract to BriteWorks, Inc. for City facilities, excluding the Senior Center, the Community Center, and Our Lady of Guadalupe Mission.
On November 24, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-113-3701, approving the First Amendment to the contract services agreement with BriteWorks, Inc. The First Amendment increased their monthly service fee based on the applicable CPI adjustment as outlined in their agreement along with additional cost pressures, including increased janitorial supply costs and statewide labor and procurement requirements affecting service providers.
On December 19, 2024, the City Council awarded the Public Library Improvement Project's construction contract to Robert Clapper Construction Services, Inc., dba: R.C. Construction Services.
The project included construction of a new +/- 12,800-square-foot public library, with expected completion in June 2026. The new library operates Monday through Saturday.
As part of the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget process, the Public Services Maintenance Division staff requested funding for a full-time Janitor position to provide necessary service Monday through Friday at the new library. The budget also included funding for contracted janitorial service covering Saturdays. On June 24, 2026, the City Council conducted a public hearing on the second reading of Ordinance No. 820, adopting the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budget, and subsequently adopted the ordinance. The adopted budget included funding for the full-time Janitor position and Saturday contract janitorial services.
The new Irwindale Public Library held its Grand Opening on Saturday, August 15, 2026, and is now open to the public. The City is currently recruiting for a full-time Janitor position. To ensure uninterrupted janitorial services during the recruitment period, staff recommends that BriteWorks, Inc., the City's current janitorial services contractor for the majority of City facilities, provide temporary Monday through Friday janitorial services at the new library beginning August 31, 2026, through October 30, 2026, or earlier upon the hiring and commencement of work by the City's full-time Janitor.
Staff also recommends that BriteWorks, Inc. provide ongoing janitorial services at the library on Saturdays.
A Second Amendment to the contract services agreement is required to add these services. The temporary Monday through Friday services will cost $4,916.28 per month for a total of $9,832.56, the ongoing Saturday janitorial services will cost $1,127.97 per month, and one annual extraordinary carpet and hard floor care will cost $3,333.32.
The Second Amendment will be approved to form by the city attorney.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funds are available in the FY 2026–2027 adopted budget; therefore, no additional appropriation is required.

Issue: Irwindale Senior Center Outside Agency Event Participation Policy City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-72-3882, entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ADOPTING AN OUTSIDE AGENCY EVENT PARTICIPATION POLICY FOR THE IRWINDALE SENIOR CENTER."

Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
At the May 26, 2026, Senior Citizen Commission meeting, the Commission requested that the allocation of event tickets and table space to outside agencies be brought back to the Commission for further discussion and review.
At the June 23, 2026, Senior Citizen Commission meeting, staff presented proposed guidelines for the allocation of event tickets and table space to outside agencies. The Commission recommended that the City Council approve the guidelines summarized below.
The Irwindale Senior Center hosts a variety of events throughout the year, many of which are highly successful and consistently generate standby lists of senior participants wishing to attend. Due to the high demand for event participation, staff has historically exercised caution when providing complimentary event tickets or table space to sponsors or outside organizations.
The Senior Center receives support from various community partners and organizations, particularly those providing health-related services, including Greater Covina Medical Group, Emanate Health, and other community-based organizations. These supporters contribute to the Senior Center in a variety of ways, including donating raffle prizes, providing event refreshments, and helping offset costs associated with Senior Center programs and publications, such as the Senior Scoop newsletter. In recognition of their support, community partners are generally provided opportunities to promote their organizations through means such as hosting an informational table outside the event venue, participating in resource fairs, or receiving logo placement on event materials and promotional items.
To ensure fairness, consistency, and transparency among all community partners, staff recommend establishing a policy for providing complimentary event tickets and reserving informational table space for outside agencies. Under the proposed policy, organizations that provide a monetary contribution of at least $500, or an equivalent in-kind donation, would be eligible to receive up to eight (8) complimentary tickets or one (1) informational table at a Senior Center event within six (6) months of the donation.
Complimentary event tickets and table space opportunities would be limited to daytime events held during the Senior Center's regular business hours. Evening dances would be excluded due to their popularity and the limited availability of tickets for Senior Center participants.
The proposed Outside Agency Event Participation Policy would establish a fair and transparent process for recognizing significant contributions from community partners while preserving priority access to Senior Center events for Irwindale senior participants.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to adopting this policy.

Issue: Authorizing Emergency Purchase of Split HVAC Units for the Police Department Building City Manager's Recommendation:
That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-76-3886, entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE WAIVING FORMAL BIDDING PROCEDURES PURSUANT TO IRWINDALE MUNICIPAL CODE SECTIONS 3.44.080(H) and (I), AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO
PROCEED WITH THE IMMEDIATE PROCUREMENT AND PURCHASE OF SPLIT HVAC UNITS FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BUILDING, AND APPROVING A BUDGET AMENDMENT TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2026- 2027 ADOPTED BUDGET BY APPROPRIATING $25,000 FROM THE GENERAL FUND RESERVE." Administrative Action:

Eddie Chan, Director of Engineering/Building Official

Approved by:
Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:
The Police Department Building provides essential public safety services to the community, including 24-hour emergency dispatch and communications operations. The Dispatch Call Center is a critical operational area where employees perform continuous emergency communications and dispatch functions.
PD staff have recently reported that the existing air-conditioning system serving the Dispatch Call Center Room is not functioning adequately. Indoor temperatures have risen to an unacceptable temperature while dispatch personnel continue to perform their regular duties.
The elevated temperatures are creating an unsuitable working environment for employees assigned to the Dispatch Call Center and may adversely affect the reliability and continuity of critical emergency communications operations. Because the Dispatch Call Center operates continuously and supports essential public safety functions, delaying corrective action until the City's normal procurement process can be completed could unnecessarily prolong the adverse conditions and potentially affect departmental operations.
Given the nature of the Police Department's operations and the elevated indoor temperatures, staff evaluated the HVAC condition and determined that an immediate solution to install a split HVAC unit to provide supplemental cooling capacity for the affected area is necessary.
The proposed split HVAC units will provide dedicated cooling to the Dispatch Call Center Room and are intended to improve temperature control and provide a reliable cooling solution while the City evaluates the condition and long-term needs of the building's overall HVAC system.
Irwindale Municipal Code section 3.44.080(I) allows for the City Council to dispense with bidding when there is a breakdown in essential machinery which requires the immediate attention of a professional or immediate service/repair in order to protect public health, safety or welfare; and under subdivision (H), when the City Council determines by resolution that it would be in the best interest of the City to dispense with bidding; provided, however, that the City Council shall state the basis of its determination.
Staff recommend dispensing with bidding and authorizing and appropriating $25,000 for a split HVAC unit is necessary to address an immediate facility condition affecting employees who perform essential public safety duties. Waiting to complete the City's standard competitive procurement process could result in continued elevated temperatures.
Fiscal Impact:
Adoption of Resolution No. 2026-76-3886 authorizes the Finance Director to amend the FY 2026-2027
adopted budget by appropriating $25,000 from the General Fund Reserves to make emergency purchase of split HVAC units for the Police Department building.

Background and Analysis:
As Lead Agency under SMARA, the City of Irwindale Public Works Engineering Department’s Mining and Reclamation Division conducts regular inspections of SMARA pits to ensure public safety and compliance within the operators’ permit conditions.
A current and detailed topographic and/or hydrographic survey map will provide critical data for the monitoring of the following:
1. Permitted mining depth.
2. Amount of material extracted from the active mine sites.
3. Amount of material imported to backfill mine sites, which are currently being reclaimed.
4. Mining slopes above water and below water level.
The Mining and Reclamation Division prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Hydrographic and/or Topographic surveys of all active mining pits subject to SMARA regulations for mining and reclamation activities.
On July 7, 2026, staff sent an RFP invitation to three selected engineering/surveying consulting firms with survey capabilities that have previously performed similar work for the City. On July 21, 2026, two bids were received with the following results:

In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.
7.2 Disputes; Default. In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended or shortened, if circumstances warrant, as determined by the Contract Officer. The cure period may run concurrently with the termination period as provided in Section 7.4, if the option to cure is in the alternative to termination. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.
7.3 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Consultant shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et. seq. and 910 et. seq., in order to pursue any legal action under this Agreement.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.
7.4 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term. This Section shall govern any termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Consultant, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Consultant reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the
01005.0001 2075479.1 12/28/2025 A-1
Contract Officer. In the event the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder, but not exceeding the compensation provided therefore in the Schedule of Compensation as shown on Exhibit “C”. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.5 Termination for Default of Consultant. If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, the City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and the City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed to the City as previously stated.
